The political economy of the public–private mix in heath expenditure: An empirical review of thirteen OECD countries

This study investigates the factors that may have influenced the public–private mix of health expenditure in 13 OECD countries from 1981 to 2007. The degree to which health services are socialized is regarded as the product of a trade-off between the desire to redistribute income through the fiscal system and the losses some citizens will incur when the public health care system expands.
